Solid build quality and great sound

Xiaomi hasn’t disappointed. These are the best sounding in-ears Xiaomi has built today without a doubt, but they do have their issues. If you’re using Android you won’t have an issue with the control module, but iOS users should be ready for a few hiccups. On top of that the sil...More

Xiaomi hasn’t disappointed. These are the best sounding in-ears Xiaomi has built today without a doubt, but they do have their issues. If you’re using Android you won’t have an issue with the control module, but iOS users should be ready for a few hiccups. On top of that the silicone ear tips that come with the headphones were pretty bad and I couldn’t get a good fit with any of them. If you’re looking to pick these up I definitely would recommend getting another pair of ear tips from somewhere else.

Absolutely not for purists

The sound here isn’t as easy to recommend to everyone, but it suits my tastes. It’s one of the cheapest earphones to use separate drivers for treble and mids/bass, which is theoretically supposed to make every part of the signature particularly potent. In reality, the bass and low-mids run the show.

Worth giving a shot

The quality of Mi’s millet ring iron headphones are pretty good. They don’t look or feel cheap when you’re using them and they’re quite reasonably priced — assuming you can find them. They’re probably accessible in China, India, and wherever else Mi’s phones and accessories are readily available, but you can’t place an order on Amazon, that’s for sure.

A shockingly good budget-price headphone

It was the look and feel of the In-Ear Headphones IV that first intrigued me -- it's a major upgrade over what I usually see in budget headphones -- but as soon as I started listening I was thrilled by the clarity. Even more than that, the In-Ear Headphones IV's bass, midrange, and treble balance was fairly accurate.

Great sound with a low price

I've had a chance to try out the new Mi headphones for a few days, and I have to agree with Xiaomi: these don't feel or sound like $30 headphones.

I've had a chance to try out the new Mi headphones for a few days, and I have to agree with Xiaomi: these don't feel or sound like $30 headphones. Compared to Apple's EarPods, which sell for the same price and have similar features, the Mi headphones sound crisper and clearer and have more bass response. The metal construction is also much nicer than Apple's all-plastic headphones (or any headphones that come in the box with whatever smartphone you happen to use).

Xiaomi have done it again

Xiaomi has done it again and produced a pair of IEMs that continue to destroy anything in, around and above the price range for a while.

Xiaomi has done it again and produced a pair of IEMs that continue to destroy anything in, around and above the price range for a while. Xiaomi is selling them for 99 RMB within China, which is roughly USD$16. Much like the Piston 3, they're heads and shoulders above anything even remotely related to this price bracket. They're well-built, well-designed and sound pretty damn good too. The hybrid design of the IEM is certainly going to have some sort of impact in the industry, if not for any other reason than to challenge the current pricing structures.
